Get Him to the Greek (2010)

Get Him to the Greek Synopsis

Get Him to the Greek reunites Jonah Hill and Russell Brand with Forgetting Sarah Marshall director Nicholas Stoller in the story of a record company intern with two days to drag an uncooperative rock legend to Hollywood for a comeback concert. The comedy is the latest film from producer Judd Apatow (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Funny People).

Aaron Greenberg (Hill) gets things done. The ambitious 23-year-old has exaggerated his way into a dream job just in time for a career-making assignment. His mission: Fly to London and escort a rock god to L.A.'s Greek Theatre for the first-stop on a $100-million tour. His warning: Turn your back on him at your own peril.

British rocker Aldous Snow (Brand) is both a brilliant musician and walking sex. Weary of yes men and piles of money, the former front man is searching for the meaning of life. But that doesn't mean he can't have a few orgies while he finds it. When he learns his true love is in California, Aldous makes it his quest to win her back...right before kick-starting his world domination.

As the countdown to the concert begins, one intern must navigate a minefield of London drug smuggles, New York City brawls and Vegas lap dances to deliver his charge safe and, sort of, sound. He may have to coax, lie to, enable and party with Aldous, but Aaron will get him to the Greek.

Itís amusing to learn that the moments from Nicholas Stollerís career that stand out to him involve an off-the-cuff rapper/mogul who talked about infiltrating Jonah Hillís brain with his private parts.

What can we learn from a summer with so few superhero movies, so many flops and very little that will be fondly remembered by the time the air gets cool? Believe it or not, there are a few trends to be found

2010 is well on its way to becoming the worst movie summer in recent history. For proof you need look no further than this weekendís number one. Shrek Forever After has repeated as the top movie in America again

Summerís coming and when it kicks off with Iron Man 2 this May, thereís no looking back. The exciting thing about this summer movie season is that, unlike the last few years, itís relatively free of sequels and shockingly

As it turns out, the real lucky bastards were the ones who got to see the movie in its entirety. Our spy, who's going by the pen name Liam Wirberly, was at an early screening of Get Him to the Greek, and wrote in with his review

Let's pretend for a moment, though, that it's real. This could possibly be the most unlikely pairing Hollywood has seen since Jean Claude Van Damme and Dennis Rodman starred opposite each other, but with the caliber of the just these two actors
